This last semester I was taking General Biology and to be frank with you, it was hard, real hard; at least it was for me. In fact I never got over a 59 percent on the tests. This was very humbling since I can't claim that I have ever preformed this poorly in college, as you can imagine this lowered my self-esteem quite rapidly. I was letting this class identify who Dylan Wren was. But then the Lord brought to my attention these two Bible verses:

"But our citizenship is in heaven. And we eagerly await a Savior from there, the Lord Jesus Christ, who by the power that enables him to bring everything under his control; will transform our lowly bodies so that they will be like his glorious body," Philippians 3:20

"You are all sons of God through faith in Christ Jesus… If you belong to Christ, then you are Abraham's seed, and heirs according to the promise," Galatians 3:26 & 29

This is our true identity! We are sons and daughters of God, citizens of heaven. These things can not be taken away from us. It is the core of who we are. All of these other things in life are secondary. We can't let material possessions, grades, careers, or any thing else for that matter define who we are. All of those things could be taken away in a heart beat. But our true identity can never be taken; all we have to do is claim it.

Well, I have been creating blog post on myspace for the last year and have decided that I am ready to take it to the next level. This is the real deal, now! So I hope that this new effort will make my post more creditable and hopefully increase the number of viewings I receive. Because currently I feel like my writings are under valued, simply because they are associated with myspace, but not any more. So here it is my new blog, enjoy.

About Me

I am a rugged individual. I can grow a beard in a week, file my own taxes, and operate a demo saw. I am a rugged individual but I desire to be more then just a rugged individual, I desire to be servant of God. I want to be lead by his commandments and teachings. I want to have integrity in my personal and public life. I want to be committed to marriage, family, and the community i live in. I want to be a man, a rugged man, that will stand for the right though the heavens fall.

“Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn't do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.” Mark Twain
